Abstract:
The presentation of necrotizing vasculitis of the testis is variable and may mimic a testicular tumor. Necrotizing vasculitis of the testis is characterized by fibrinoid necrosis of the walls of small and medium-sized testicular arteries. We report a patient with isolated necrotizing vasculitis of the testis who presented with clinical imaging findings suspicious for testicular neoplasm. We describe the clinical course and sonographic characteristics of evolving necrotizing vasculitis of the testis, briefly review the literature, and discuss the implications for the diagnosis and management of this condition.
